Over all this hotel is fantastic with good sized rooms and very helpful staff. Roof top pool and Spa is a must visit with amazing views of Sydney Harbour bridge, opera house and beyond. The bathrooms is a bit dated. But has both bath and shower. Hotel is centrally located in the rocks and is well worth staying at. Will be staying there again
